Dependency parsing

Grew-parse-FR is natural language parser for French.
It is composed of a GRS (Graph Rewriting System) which can be used with the Grew software to produce dependency syntax structures from POS-tagged data.
With a POS-tagger (MElt is recommended), it provides a full parser with sentences as input and dependency structures as output.
The parsing GRS is described in an IWPT 2015 publication.

Prerequisite

POStoSSQ: get it with the command: git clone https://gitlab.inria.fr/grew/POStoSSQ.git

POS-tagging

The parsing system POStoSSQ is waiting for a pos-tagged input.
One easy way to produce such a pos-tagged French sentence is to use MElt.
It should be possible to use another tagger but this may require a few categories matching to adapt the output of the tagger.

With MElt, the options used -L and -T are used to tokenize the input sentence and to lemmatize the output.
For instance, the following command:
